Many appreciate its compatibility with various systems and its performance in burning and reading discs. However, some customers find the price to be a bit high.

    Since the MacBook Air did not come with an internal CD/DVD drive I needed an alternative. This is super easy to use.

    This super drive makes backing up your pictures and files easy. Great to have for cd's and computer games since the new Mac desk top doesn't have a disc drive built in anymore.

    I purchased this drive for an apple laptop that doesn't have an internal disk drive. It was simple to plug and play and I caught it on sell….So great purchase. I have only used it to download a cd rom, although it has the capability to do more.

    Does exactly what I need it to do. But why did Apple make it necessary to get an external drive?

    The new macs don't come with cd drives, so you need an external. This one is made by apple and well worth the extra couple of dollars for the original.

    This drive is easy to use. Plug and play. Removing the drive from a laptop makes the laptop much lighter, but sometimes I want to use the drive. I just plug and play!

    Since CD/DVD drives are not built-in like they are on many PCs, I bought the external CD/DVD drive to go with an Apple 21" inch desktop. It seems to work well and is easy to install and use.

    If you own a Mac computer system, this external disc drive is a must have. It’s very easy to install (plug in and play). The quality is what you’d expect from Apple.

    Just purchased a new iMac -- which did not have the cd/dvd slot on the side. The Apple Superdrive works excellently and the silver tone matches the iMac stand.
